world_n love_v sinful_a man_n 2._o he_o only_o beget_v son_n give_v to_o redeem_v we_o 3._o the_o holy_a ghost_n regenerate_v we_o and_o work_a faith_n in_o we_o that_o by_o faith_n we_o may_v escape_v eternal_a death_n and_o attain_v eternal_a life_n for_o this_o be_v the_o true_a and_o genuine_a sense_n of_o these_o word_n we_o read_v of_o many_o form_n of_o faith_n and_o confession_n some_o call_v apostolical_a relate_v by_o many_o of_o the_o ancient_n and_o of_o the_o nicene_n ephesine_n constantinopolitan_n roman_a athanasian_n and_o other_o yet_o this_o be_v before_o they_o all_o above_o they_o all_o the_o ground_n of_o they_o all_o immediate_o divine_a deliver_v by_o christ_n himself_o record_v in_o holy_a scripture_n and_o therefore_o no_o unwritten_a tradition_n in_o this_o respect_n tertullian_n may_v well_o say_v that_o the_o apostle_n have_v the_o rule_n of_o faith_n from_o christ_n and_o christ_n from_o god_n for_o from_o who_o he_o receive_v his_o power_n from_o he_o he_o receive_v this_o doctrine_n which_o he_o command_v his_o apostle_n to_o teach_v and_o all_o nation_n to_o believe_v sect._n 3_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o the_o ancient_a and_o apostolical_a creed_n deliver_v by_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o church_n which_o they_o plant_v as_o by_o several_a of_o the_o first_o primitive_a writer_n we_o be_v inform_v for_o they_o for_o matter_n and_o method_n agree_v with_o this_o and_o in_o both_o be_v conformable_a unto_o it_o the_o matter_n of_o they_o all_o be_v god_n the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o the_o method_n be_v to_o begin_v with_o the_o father_n go_v on_o with_o the_o son_n and_o end_n with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n though_o not_o in_o express_a term_n yet_o by_o consequence_n by_o which_o it_o appear_v they_o take_v their_o rise_n from_o these_o word_n 1._o they_o begin_v with_o god_n the_o father_n and_o under_o this_o part_n bring_v in_o that_o first_o great_a work_n of_o creation_n 2._o they_o proceed_v to_o the_o son_n the_o eternal_a word_n of_o the_o father_n who_o be_v make_v flesh_n and_o redeem_v mankind_n create_v righteous_a and_o holy_a and_o fall_v in_o adam_n 3._o they_o speak_v of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n who_o as_o tertullian_n express_v it_o be_v sanctificator_n fidei_fw-la by_o who_o christ_n be_v conceive_v the_o prophet_n inspire_v the_o

eternal_a reward_n &_o to_o the_o devil_n and_o wicked_a man_n eternal_a punishment_n where_o we_o must_v observe_v 1._o that_o creation_n extend_v to_o all_o thing_n for_o god_n create_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o all_o thing_n therein_o 2._o redemption_n reach_v only_a man_n for_o christ_n redeem_v not_o the_o angel_n nor_o any_o other_o creature_n but_o sinful_a mankind_n 3._o sanctification_n be_v confine_v to_o the_o church_n and_o the_o elect_a people_n of_o god_n so_o that_o the_o spirit_n sanctify_v not_o all_o man_n but_o the_o church_n christ_n reedeem_v man_n but_o not_o all_o creature_n god_n the_o father_n creat_v all_o thing_n and_o all_o person_n the_o first_o part_n of_o the_o creed_n concern_v one_o god_n be_v against_o all_o atheist_n and_o heathen_a idolater_n the_o second_o concern_v the_o son_n jesus_n christ_n be_v against_o all_o mahometan_n and_o unbelieving_a jew_n the_o three_o concern_v the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v against_o all_o pelagian_n enemy_n of_o grace_n and_o counterfeit_n christian_n and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o the_o mystery_n of_o god_n the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v never_o so_o clear_o and_o distinct_o make_v manifest_a as_o it_o be_v when_o the_o father_n out_o of_o love_n give_v his_o only_a beget_v son_n and_o send_v he_o into_o the_o world_n and_o when_o the_o son_n and_o eternal_a word_n be_v make_v flesh_n and_o redeem_v man_n and_o when_o the_o holy_a ghost_n descend_v in_o the_o likeness_n of_o a_o dove_n and_o rest_v upon_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n and_o come_v upon_o the_o apostle_n and_o sanctify_a believer_n sect._n 4._o after_o it_o have_v be_v manifest_v that_o in_o this_o doctrine_n concern_v god_n the_o father_n and_o the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n 1._o we_o have_v christ_n own_o creed_n and_o 2._o that_o this_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o the_o ancient_a apostolical_a creed_n and_o confession_n it_o remain_v 3_o that_o i_o say_v something_o of_o that_o which_o be_v common_o call_v the_o apostle_n creed_n which_o we_o find_v in_o ruffinus_n with_o a_o exposition_n and_o which_o be_v use_v in_o the_o catechism_n and_o liturgy_n of_o the_o roman_a and_o reform_a church_n in_o this_o we_o may_v observe_v 1._o that_o for_o the_o principal_a matter_n and_o method_n its_o ground_a upon_o our_o saviour_n creed_n and_o exact_o agree_v with_o the_o ancient_a and_o primitive_a confession_n for_o therein_o we_o have_v three_o principal_a part_n the_o 1._o concern_v god_n the_o father_n and_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n the_o 2._o concern_v god_n the_o son_n and_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n of_o man_n the_o 3._o concern_v god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o sanctification_n of_o the_o church_n and_o the_o elect_a people_n of_o god_n this_o appear_v by_o that_o brief_a contraction_n of_o it_o in_o our_o public_a catechism_n which_o be_v a_o prime_a piece_n in_o this_o particular_a of_o antiquity_n and_o give_v great_a light_n how_o to_o understand_v the_o confession_n and_o imply_v that_o it_o be_v ground_v upon_o our_o saviour_n creed_n 2._o to_o understand_v this_o creed_n the_o better_a we_o must_v observe_v 1._o the_o object_n 2._o the_o act_n of_o man_n about_o this_o object_n 1._o the_o object_n be_v god_n the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n consider_v 1._o in_o himself_o 2._o in_o his_o work_n which_o be_v 1._o creation_n 2._o providence_n providence_n where_o of_o there_o be_v two_o part_n 1._o preservation_n 2._o ordination_n 1._o general_n of_o all_o 2._o special_a of_o man_n especial_o as_o fall_v of_o this_o special_a providence_n there_o be_v two_o principal_a branch_n redemption_n application_n concern_v the_o redeemer_n two_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v observable_a 1._o who_o he_o be_v 2._o what_o be_v his_o work_n 1._o he_o be_v jesus_n christ_n who_o for_o person_n be_v the_o only_a son_n of_o god_n for_o nature_n god_n and_o man_n and_o as_o man_n he_o be_v conceive_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o bear_v of_o the_o virgin_n mary_n for_o office_n he_o be_v king_n priest_n and_o prophet_n 2._o his_o work_n be_v that_o which_o we_o call_v redemption_n whereof_o two_o part_n his_o humiliation_n his_o exaltation_n his_o humiliation_n in_o that_o he_o take_v upon_o he_o the_o form_n of_o a_o servant_n suffer_v under_o pontious_n pilate_n be_v crucify_a dead_a and_o bury_v descend_v into_o hell_n his_o exaltation_n in_o his_o resurrection_n his_o exaltation_n in_o his_o ascension_n his_o exaltation_n in_o his_o session_n at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n his_o exaltation_n in_o his_o come_v to_o judgement_n the_o application_n of_o this_o redemption_n have_v three_o thing_n considerable_a 1._o the_o principal_a cause_n which_o be_v the_o holy_a ghost_n by_o the_o word_n work_v faith_n in_o we_o 2._o the_o subject_n to_o which_o this_o application_n be_v make_v which_o be_v the_o holy_a catholic_n church_n the_o communion_n of_o saint_n which_o be_v the_o number_n of_o believer_n 3._o the_o effect_n of_o this_o redemption_n apply_v which_o be_v 1._o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n 2._o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n 3._o life_n everlasting_a and_o here_o it_o be_v to_o be_v note_v 1._o that_o by_o the_o humiliation_n of_o christ_n and_o especial_o the_o death_n and_o sacrifice_n of_o himself_o upom_o the_o cross_n these_o effect_n and_o blessing_n be_v merit_v and_o in_o consideration_n of_o the_o same_o be_v promise_v 2._o that_o god_n as_o love_v we_o redeem_v we_o by_o christ_n and_o apply_v this_o redemption_n by_o his_o spirit_n be_v the_o fountain_n and_o cause_n of_o salvation_n and_o eternal_a happiness_n 3._o that_o god_n the_o father_n son_n and_o holy_a ghost_n as_o consider_v in_o himself_o and_o in_o his_o work_n of_o creation_n redemption_n and_o sanctification_n be_v the_o principal_a object_n of_o the_o act_n of_o this_o save_a faith_n 2._o as_o these_o thing_n be_v the_o object_n of_o our_o faith_n and_o the_o credenda_fw-la so_o the_o act_n be_v to_o believe_v to_o believe_v be_v 1._o to_o be_v certain_o persuade_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o these_o thing_n as_o reveal_v by_o god_n and_o certain_o know_v to_o be_v so_o for_o the_o ground_n of_o a_o divine_a infallible_a faith_n must_v be_v a_o divine_a testimony_n know_v certain_o to_o be_v divine_a 2
